My invention relates to cutters and has for and from the scope of theclaim, and the deits object to provide a new and eicient cutvice may berotated by hand to do the cutter for cutting off pipes and other objectsting. when turned by a lathe or chuck. The operation of my device is asfollows:

5 A further obj ect is to provide a new and To cut a piece of pipe thebars l and 2 are economical cutter for severing pipes which hung overthe pipe to be cut and the cutter bar will be quicker and more eflicientin cutting 7 is placed in the correct position to make the off thesectionV of pipe and which will elimicut by varying the bolt 8 in theholes 6 and nate the danger of breaking the tools in makalso in holes 15provided in the cutter bar.

i@ ing the cut. y The cutting tool is placed against the work Theseobjects I accomplish with the device and the work rotated by any means;as the illustrated in the accompanying` drawings, in tool cuts into thework the thumb screw 14 which similar numerals and letters of referisturned on the bolt 12 and the cutter tool ence indicate like partsthroughout the is forced into the work, cutting the pipe.

'claimIn the drawings, in which Ihave shown the In a cutter the combination ofa piece of bestand most preferred manner of building metalbent back uponitself to form a handle;

Si? my invention, Figure 1 is a side view of the a cutting bar suspendedfrom said handle device cutting 01T a pipe. Figure 2 is a near one endthereof; va cutting tool set in plan view of the cutter, with the thumbscrew said bar at an angle thereto; an eye bolt removed. secured tothelower end of said cutter bar In the drawings I have shown the pipe as todraw said cutter bar to the work; and a f A and the handle B as made ofa bar of metal thumb nut on said eye bolt.

bent back upon itself to form two spaced In testimony whereof I haveaxed my sigapart bars 1 and 2 bent at 3. The said bars nature. are madewider, as at 4 and have an angled JOSEPH B. GALBRAITH. bend 5 in each ofthem, as shown in Figure 1. Y

Holes 6 are provided in the widened portion 4 to regulate the cuttingyof the pipe and to provide for large and small pipes. A cutter bar 7 issuspended from the said holes 6 by the bolt S and has a cutting tool 9placed therethrough at an angle thereto. The said tool 9 is securedadjustably in the said bar 7 by the clamp 10 and the bolts 11. Athreaded eye bolt 12 is secured pivotally to the lower end of the saidbar 7 and a guide 13 is pro- 40 vided between the two free ends of thesaid bars 1 and 2 and pivoted therebetween on the pine 16 and throughwhich guide the said bolt12 is passed and a thumb screw yor a nut 1A isscrewed onto the end of the said bolt to 45 draw the cutter bar 7 to thework.

It will be obvious that the eye bolt and its parts might be placed backof the bar 7 and force it to its work by pressure, rather than drawingit to the work as shown, withgli out departing from the spirit of theinvention
